There's a Polish version of AoA that will be available in Poland soon.

But it probably won't be polished.

Considering the quality of Polish FS2 translation (Godspeed as "Good Speed"? In such a moment? Completely deadpan? Seriously.), there's a chance that "unpolished" wouldn't do it justice.

But it would! Don't you see? It's Polish!

I want WoD to become FS3, simply to watch the heads explode.

I hope someone will make a mod based on the FS3 ideas

Do you want the Gargant included too?

WoD?

[General Battuta]

Wings of Dawn, fun anime mod set in another universe that you should play.

[Scotty]

Wings of Dawn.  Totally worth playing even though I haven't yet.

I had WoD downloaded, but all I get is blackness where the main screen is supposed to be. Says I'm missing a file but it makes no sense for them to package their mod without their main screen.

It has to do with the way your install is set up, probably - if the issue's not fixed by downloading a new mv_assets, post a log.

I wanted to re read this thread, the interview and the thread split. Memorable, at least.

The whole Shivantown attack thing is so weird that I'm impressed the original plans for FS3 included a TV attack so deep in Shivan territory. Up until the second Sathanas showed up, the extent of Shivan forces seemed one the Terrans and Vasudans could handle regardless of the Colossus' presence in their fleet; however, finding out that the enemy is capable of deploying 80 of those uber ships changes everything. A deep attack in Shivan territory, unless it's carried out by a small task force (a la The Lord of the Rings), would make no sense at all - a turtle strategy, a system-to-system battle with wide use of Meson bombs to secure TV space would be much, much more believable.

Some of us who were around while the developers actually played the game (having played squadwars and matches with them) picked up masses of stuff from them. Though many of the things they told us were in confidence, but even as such, hypothetical anyway (general directions, they didn't have much of the stuff bolted down either).

Throughout the years discussing different ideas with the community, you sort of find out that people in general aren't interested in what makes sense, just that their own interpretation and deduction be correct, ie "No, it's the way I envision it to be". And as I would never be able to directly state "it's like this, this and this", anything I say just passes off as my own opinion, and I never expose the weight of what I know behind them. I've carried many people's secrets throughout these past 13 years, and have no intention of ever breaking the seal on any of them. Neither am I interested in shopping my opinions as being correct either. They're still just opinions, although perhaps with a little more information behind them than most have access to.

But I'm glad he let the cat out of the bag on some of it (though he's pretty smart, he didn't really tell you much of anything vital - not that it matters anyway, because if they ever got to the point where they'd create an FS3, it would be entirely different than what was envisioned all those years ago [think franchise reboot, new staff members, wholly new ideas from the new members, etc.]), so that you guys can get some general direction. It means more when you can show it comes from the horses mouth.

I can't believe this post was barely noticed. Basically there's a forum member saying he knows more regarding the original plans for FS3 than pretty much anyone else here on HLP, and nobody tries to obtain said information? BlackDove, I kindly ask you to tell us more about it, FS3 is so unlikely to happen it'd be completely harmless to reveal what you know.

[The E]

Which part of "priviledged information, shared in confidence" did you not see?

[General Battuta]

Yeah, BlackDove's always said that he made promises not to divulge this stuff. I'm surprised you thought that post was a surprise!

[MatthTheGeek]

And it's not like if many people around here still have any interest in a FS3 that will and should never happen.

We have our own universes here. Our own continuities. Our own dreams. We don't need to be restrained by the ideas of past developers to make great things.
